Just to clarify; imps are hellborn, not mortal souls. Stolas's family is hellborn as well...

[@nindyfarrel1322]

Not tryna gatekeep or hate or something, but I feel like some people, especially reactors, don't realise that Hellborns exists in this universe (mostly potrayed in Helluva and usually as overlords) and treats everyone as sinners sent there (like commenting "why did they get sent to hell?" or "cause you're already dead"). It's not that they're an idiot-some people just don't know and others could get infiruated from it. My little theory is that since Hazbin (a show full of sinners) was their first taste of this universe, they're not that used to/know that Imps and other hellborns exist, unlike how they interpret sinners-thus assuming most characters are damned souls sent there. And I also like that Imps usually have a "default" look (striped horns, black and/or white hair, yellow eyes, red skin, ect) while sinners and certain overlords/royalties have varied designs-giving them a distinguished look from each other. But this is just me and my opinion.

"You'll Be Okay." Stolas' lullaby, if you get into the deep lore of connections to the Bible and occult books like the Ars Goetia, is extremely sad. He's basically saying, "Hell and demon-kind will all be destroyed in Armageddon, and I'm okay with that, because I know God will spare you."

[@walnzell9328]

It's quite possible his trust in his heavenly father (because he was probably there for the attempted overthrow of God) is misplaced. Thousands of imp children are probably exterminated every year. They're shown no mercy even though they were born in hell, punished for sins they didn't commit from the day they are born. The only thing demons like Charlie and Octavia have going for them is status, wealth, and incredible demonic powers. Without that, they're dead.

Except that's not the case. They have an arranged marriage. I don't think she even cares if Stolas screws around. It's the fact he screwed an Imp, which she probably considers a lesser class, and the fact an imp was in her bed. Notice she got angry when he mentioned a hotel? "Like a common plebian!" She doesn't rant about betrayal. She rants about him being low class and an embarrassment.

[@SpaceTrucker91]

@@RequiemPoete I’m so glad other people caught that... She’s not pissed off he cheated... She’s pissed off with who he cheated with. In the hierarchy of hell, imps are seen as a lower class by high demons and the other hellborn. It’s very subtle and if you don’t pay CLOSE attention you miss it

Stolas is a good dad and really does love his daughter. It is implied that Stolas and his wife Stella are in a political/arranged marriage.

She's pissed that he dare cheat on her with someone less than her also that it could tarnish their reputation.

As someone who looks at their instagram (yes, they all have one), this side of Stolas is more shown there. I loved this episode because it shows that side of him. As for their family issues, Stolas and his wife are an arranged couple. As such, they don't really love each other as they were only married because of their status. The reason the wife is upset at Stolas is not that he cheated but that he slept with an imp aka commoner and behaves less like a person of his status. I gotta feel for the guy as he is my favorite character in Helluva Boss.

The thing about he’ll is that there are 2 categories of residents: 1) Natural Born Demons. They have like a species that’s similar in characteristics, take for example the Imps, they are born in hell and they can die by normal means, say gunfire like in episode one and this one as well. Stoles is also a Demon, but he’s a prince of hell so he’s super powerful. 2) Sinners: people who were once humans and upon death were sent to hell. Extremely varied in looks and types. Take Angel Dust and Vagi as examples for this. Once humans, now sinners. I think that they can only be permanently destroyed by heavenly weapons (?) and that’s why there’s an extermination every year.

I just felt like... damn that was both relatable to a lot of people and felt so realistic, I personally liked it when Stolas said that she needed to understand but couldn't explain what he was going to say that felt real because people in movies people always say something on the spot but here he can't think of any way of saying it, and that's what makes it so realistic.

Here's something interesting I just learned: Apparently, according to the Ars Goetia, a demonology from the mid-17th century, Stolas is one of the 7 Great Princes of Hell. He's said to command twenty-six legions of demons and to be a teacher of astronomy (whatever that means). He is also said to be knowledgeable about herbs, plants, and precious stones. His most common depictions are a raven or a crowned owl with long legs. Well, Vivzi definitely integrated the appearence, as well as the herbs, plants and the astronomy-parts. Considering that he's a Hellborn, I wonder how much more this Stolas and the one from the Ars Goetia have in common.

[@sterlingmuse5808]

Also, this was the first time that I really felt like Stolas' new voice actor was better than the old one. This one just feels more like he can be both horrifying AND a good dad, as opposed to the other one who did a fantastic villain voice but who I'm not sure would do as well in a father role with that voice.

[@walnzell9328]

I also find it weird that Loo Loo Land was Octavia's favorite place as an innocent five year old. Her family is in the Goetia hierarchy. Surely Stolas could afford to take his family to Lu Lu World. The one owned by Lucifer himself.

[@nindyfarrel1322]

I mean, Loo Loo Land is presumably owned by another overlord/royalty, Mormon the prince of greed. Mormon might have fought lawsuits from Lucifer with Fizzaroli (if he's a real person) to keep the cash-grab rip-off park going and Loo Loo land presumably seems to be more popular among the middle-class-and-under demons. Maybe Stolas liked Loo Loo land better (he's kinda like the type of royalty that enjoys blending in with civilians more-not just from his prefered "taste") or something.

[@Katzztar]

I think that she preferred Loo Loo Land was because it was not owned by Lucifer. I have a feeling that Lu Lu World is more classy so Stolas wouldn't been able to relax and enjoy being with his daughter.

[@lilacpen8678]

Also, presumably, Lu Lu World would be in Lucifer's domain, the Pride ring, which is where all the sinners are. From what we've seen, human-born demons, while less powerful, seem to be far more unpredictable and, therefore, dangerous, as opposed to the other rings with hell-born demons that seem to function more-or-less like proper societies than the dog-eat-dog world of the Pride ring. While a powerful demon like Stolas would have no difficulty holding his own against even the most powerful of the human-born demons, the same could likely not be said about his five-year-old daughter.

And I feel like showing us all the pain and suffering they went through before they show a willingness to change and redeem themselves is minimizing their sins so to speak.

[@drakeware655]

@@wiseguy1512 I think it's to make them relatable (fathers in estranged relationships can relate to Stolas' struggle and people with a rough life can relate to Angel's if they went down that route) and make us feel happier for them when they do decide to try and redeem themselves

[@nindyfarrel1322]

I mean, beside of the "relatability" theme, they both kinda shows a type of "redemption ark" for two of the least "redeemable" characters of the series (Angel and Stolas were only potrayed as "sex-joke riddled comedic relief" characters before the release of "Addict" and "Loo Loo Land" respectively). Since then, people finally see past through them-seeing the real struggle in their lives (and somehow not used to "justify" their behaviour/action-which is good, I guess?). Idk why, I just love how this series way of showing more dimension to the characters even if it's not "direct" or "rushed". But this is just me.

I don't think that was an illusion. Stolas jsut portaled them to a random star system where the star was going supernova, just to show the scenery to his daughter as he sang her to sleep.

Sigh.. Viv was asked a question, who was stronger, Al or Mr. Hoothoot, she didn't really confirm who was stronger, but she *PROBABLY* went with Stolas cuz he is more than just an overlord.

[@flameendcyborgguy883]

@@bluebearcz4371 Well... I already done one analise with my take on that, but I don't know everything about those characters. Alastor is a deal maker, and voo-doo specialist: so he can steal your soul( literly), for the certain buff, using the rpg terminology, and incredible curses. We also know that he can open portals to the difrent parts of hell and have shadow manipulation ability. Meanwhile Stolas is Astronomy demon prince. His apperance and ability seen in second episode of helluva boss points out that he is in fact basilisk( or basilisk type demon), which means, that he can petrifie everythings that lives and unlike the gorgon, he can do it thru the mirrors. It seems that he controls this power, and to add to it, he is not strictly rooster based basylisk, but owl based, so he can rotate his head to look all around himselfs, o either you are looky and didn't noticed you, or he don't want to waste his stranght on you. And also, as wielder of grimuar, he have portal abilities tied to himself. And those portal abilities seem to be the key. You see, there are three levels presented to us on how powerfull portal making can be: First( Or zero if you will), is power to make static portal using grimuar, and outside sorces, like blod/ink. We seen in with how IMP works, drawing portal anddoing something with coordinates. From surface level it seems that it is hard to close those portals, it takes time to cook them, and you need to do all the stuff from the book. Second one, was shown by Alastor in Hazbin Pilot. It is semi natural, and person wielding this power can cast it on any hard surface. With this tier you simply need where both inputs are, and use it while castin. Closing is medicore speed, and funly unlike level zero, it seems imposible to cast it to far out, or at least it seem to be quite hard without grimuars inside( possibly coordinates enchantments). This also limits the whole power to working in the hell boundries. The third, and maximal level we saw, is prince level powers. Stolas is only chracter that we knows that wields this portal power level( WIth possibility of his daughter also possesing it). This is when portals can be used as the wepons, as they can be moving and don't need to be on the ground( As we saw in the intro of the second episode of helluva). Stolas can easily cast it as it was not big deal. Also, he simply borrowed his grimua to Imps? Something is suspeacius here. In fact with how easily he could cast them, it seam that he don't need it at all, and simply uses grimuar to memorize some of less used coordinates. This also means that he could pull out some fine power moves, like one portal to the heart of the star, while the other to enemie. But it begs questions, if his portals are two or one sided. Either way, he still could chop you up using oprtal presure while closing( And funnly physicist, like me, estimated that if it would to happen with wormholes, aI 3d portal, it would be clean causterized cut). And also also, it seems that job of Stolas in rality is comunication with difrent dimaension, possibly even taking certain people out of the hell on the purge( Like other princes/overlords of hell). This means that he would be always protected by others overlord( even when nobody is knowing that), simply becose he can smugle everything from and into the hell... And don't let me start that it also seems like he have telepathy, becose i have no idea how many other abilities those two have still up their sleves.

[@bluebearcz4371]

@@flameendcyborgguy883 Yeah, but Alastor has many other things up his sleeve, we didn't even see 3/10 of his power. I think we shouldn't judge so quickly when we don't even know what he can do.

[@flameendcyborgguy883]

@@bluebearcz4371 Yes this is true, but we also didn't seen all of the Stolas powers. In this point of time this is how i get it, but it may change as episodes roll out. And to be clear, it is not to hate on Alastor. In fact i like him more then Stolas... At least in certain areas, and both are way over our standard humans power levels, ai they are op, and both are op in the difrent regions. Alastor uses people and is overall machiavelistic and sadistic in nature, and usrely he can make you dance as he pleases, meanwhile Stolas don't care about hell, exept of his d*ck( which i hate in him), and his daughter( which i like in him). All in all Alastor in my opinion is less powerfull but more imposing and dangerous then Stolas, if that makes sense.

So, the way they're doing this is, Helluva Boss is going onto KZbin, and then Hazbin Hotel will actually be on TV (I think). Obviously, it'll be a bit more time before we get Hazbin, but it apparently got picked up by a good studio that gives a lot of creative freedom (can't remember who, but they had a short name).

Airier: Stolas reminds me of the Beatles. Me *a Beatles fan*: Where?! If anything he is like David Bowie.

[@Caladis]

Later episodes show that Stolas tried to be a good husband but his wife hated him and belittled him even more than he disliked her. The best he could do was be a good father, and even that became less important the older his daughter got and the worse his wife got. Just like a real divorce, the children are either forgotten or they are pawns.

[@Nazo-kage]

6:16 something that took multiple watches to finally get, is Stolas’ wife’s yelling. Even though she is angry at him for sleeping with somebody it seems to be, more that he slept with an Imp, then it is that he cheated on her. In fact she seems to be even more upset at the idea is that he would’ve done it in a motel room.

[@michigosinister1508]

There's one major thing I love about this episode. Stolas doesn't bullshit his excuses when he's talking to his daughter. Most people would say 'Oh we weren't in love' or 'Oh we grew apart'. Stolas started to say those things but stopped himself because he knew it wasn't the right thing to say to her. Instead he told her he couldn't find the words which basically means he had no excuse for what happened. And honestly, that was 20 times better than anything else he could have said to her about what was going on. Then he made sure to put to rest her fear of being left behind. He wouldn't leave his daughter behind and she just needed to know that. Their relationship will get better because he was honest about all of this. It'll just take some time.

[@maxentirunos]

This comment didn't age well, but to tell the truth, I feel like it's more about things being way more complicated than he can talk about it. He wants to say ''we weren't in love'' but yes they were. He begin ''Your mother always been...'' and stop because it would be a lie, she wasn't always like that. He jump about his responsibility going ''I wasn't...'' except he have done everything he could and began being unfaithful way later. It's just that it didn't work. In the end, he just can't explain it enough with words, and certainly not in the middle of a emotionally charged discussion.

[@ninjafalls1739]

[@wyattcoverdale6979]

I can explain this. In the actual Ars Goetia (a book which explains how to summon gnostic demons) Stolas is a prince of hell. He has the knowledge of astrology, which explains why hes able to teleport to basically anywhere in the universe. He also has the knowledge of herbs and gems. That is probably what that book is full of: teleportation rituals, meanings of herbs, and magical gems. Also probably a touch bit on biological sciences.

[@gachalordnoobie4911]

it's a bit of a running joke in the community that Stolas is the only character to be censored in the entire show. This is likely for two reason - either it is a hint that he is like the only character who doesn't like swearing, saying "language!", or the fact that he is an Owl and he simply makes extremely high pitched noises when he's excited causing it to sound like beeping, either way it is funny lol.

Octavia is closer to her father than her mother. In fact she rarely ever brings up her mother. All of Octavia's family concerns revolves around the fear of Stolas leaving her life for good. Besides their family portrait, the mother never appears in any other pictures that Octavia has. It's always been just her and her father And yes it's highly implied that Stolas and Stella have an arranged marriage and don't actually love each other though Stolas' lullaby heavily implies that he tried to love her and used to believe that love was an actual thing. Stella doesn't even give a shit that Stolas cheated on her, she's more pissed that he slept with an imp, which seem to be considered a commoner in the eyes of the royal families. Plus that Stolas and Blitzo slept on THEIR bed in THEIR royal house

Fizzarolli is voiced by Alex Brightman, who played Beetlejuice in " Beetlejuice: The Musical".

[@downbeatdialga1341]

People are thinking that in Stolas’ song, when he mentions “one last story to write,” it’s either in reference to the end of his work in that he could die during the story (hopefully not, cuz I love him), or another probability that it’s his willingness to stay in the failing marriage to be there for Octavia. That would imply he was never happy in his marriage, gradually grew unhappy in it, or had been having his affair with Blitzo for that long, which I find hard to believe but weirder things have happened. So it’s either in regards to a death flag for him, or his support for Via in his failing marriage.

[@javis88h]

Solis doesn't have a line per say.. I think he accidentally caught himself in a flirty line of dialogue where Blitz thought he was still talking about sex, even though this is the rare instance it wasn't about sex. Gotta love how casual Blitz was when talking about Octavia's hygiene...

So, as I understand, demons who were once human, such as Angel and Vaggie, are incapable of having children, as a sort of extra punishment. Demons who are native to hell, like Charlie and Stolas, can have children, as they're not there as a punishment. Also, the reason why Lucifer is so powerful and the king of hell is because he was once an angel, and angels are more powerful than any demon

Pay attention to Stella's wording and stresses. She is not mad he slept with someone else, she's mad he slept with an IMP, and did it IN THEIR BED. In other words, they likely both have side lovers because their marriage was arranged, and agreed-on rules to follow when having their trysts, i.e., who is socially acceptable to play with and who is not, and where to play... rules Stolas broke. Then she calls him an 'embarassment'... an extremely STRANGE choice of insult to throw at an adulterous spouse when you're angry at their adultery. Because she's not. She then stresses the 'IMP-SUCKING' in her parting shot above all else. It's his choice of lover that is the main source of enragement... along with his sexual position as Blitzo's SUB. In this case, she probably found out Blitzo banged Stolas in their bed, and thus she has realized that at some point she has slept in IMP JIZZ, and that set her off like dynamite, because now Stolas has not just humiliated himself, and the family name, but also her DIRECTLY with his sexual escapade. When you remember that Imps and Hellhounds are the bottom tier of Hell's castes, and Stolas is demon royalty which is right up by the top... If it got out Stolas is banging an Imp, let alone PLAYING BITCH for one, the family would look very weak and this would extremely damage their alliances and position in Hell's hierarchy. Which is EXACTLY what Stella, who married Stolas for that position, is enraged by. She has endured a loveless marriage for centuries, all to maintain her position in the hierarchy, and Stolas has just pulled the rug out from under her and could potentially make it all for nothing.
